This was really good. I enjoyed the mystery and humor of it and I did laugh at some parts and cried in other episodes.
Namkoong Min (Chun Ji Hoon) This actor is crazy good, he can be serious one minute, be a comedian the next, and be emotional with tears. His character in this drama is crazy and very intelligent. I love the way he plays a lawyer. Kim Ji Eun (Baek Ma Ri) very well playing a trainee to be a lawyer. Thanking all the other actors and actresses because, without their part in this drama, it wouldn't have gone as far as it did. The only thing I had a problem with is when the fianceé was murdered. It shifted like some episodes were missing. It only went to 12... and usually, these dramas go to 16. I'm wondering what happened. oh well. It is good to watch for those who like Attorney dramas.

The storyline was okay, it was different. All the actors and actresses did their best. I loved Ding Wei the best and he was only the supporting actor that did awesomely with his role-playing of Jie Ke. The story was just unreal to me. I felt like I was in a coma. The ending was okay... The actress did very well playing a spoiled brat which I didn't like. But the lead main actress, I know that she does better. I would've rated it a little lower but I would be disrespecting the whole team. They did their best. Others may like this but I just couldn't grasp at the storyline.

In order for me to rate this better is to see more of it. I will have to wait for Season 2 but this is a very good story. It brings awareness to those who bully. I didn't realize that bullying was just that bad in South Korea where netizens can destroy those who bully. No wonder South Korea is in the top 5 countries with suicide rates. They need to make more dramas such as this one. It's funny that I watch and review dramas that I have a stalker on MDL. My personality is very strong so it doesn't bother me. I've been through worse. I hope everyone watches this, this is the 2nd such Korean Drama that I have watched about bullying. Bullying is one of the malicious crimes I hate the most.

OMG, OMG, this was so good, I loved it and I will rewatch it very soon. The best fantasy I have viewed in a Korean Drama. Wow, I'm impressed! I didn't think I was going to like it because of the Season 1 Naksu but I do love the actress who is playing Naksu in Season 2. I have seen her in other dramas. Lee Jae Wook (Jang Uk), where did this actor come from, he is really awesome and I love his acting skills. I want to see more of him. Go Yoon Jung (Naksu) had 3 characters to play and of course, my favorite is Naksu. Hwang Min Hyun (Seo Yul), Shin Seung Ho (Go Won), Yoo Joon Sang (Park Jin), and Oh Na Ra (Kim Do Ju) who are part the main leads roles I mean they did their jobs so awesomely. Hwang Min Hyun was very believable in his character. Yoo In Soo (Park Dang Gu) and Im Chul Soo (Lee Cheol) were support actors who should have been part of the main lead team. That's how good they were. The costumes, the visuals, the animations, and the fantasy were undeniably awesome. I thank all the other supportive actors/actresses who had a part in this drama. The storyline of both Seasons 1&2 OMG, I never loved a Korean drama like this one.

Note: I was chewed out by a newcomer who said all I talk about is the actors and actresses and not the storyline. If I told you the storyline now would that be fair to those who watch it? That's like me telling you the ending. This drama is exceptionally good and for those who love fantasy dramas, this is for you.

I couldn't get into this drama at first because it got me confused. I decided to come back and try watching it again. I missed a part that was key to the storyline and that is what confused me. This is the kind of drama that needs 100% of your attention. The storyline was very intriguing and a good mystery of who did it and why. So many suspects. The ending was amazing! Song Joong Ki (Jin Do Joon) Yoon Hyun Woo was awesome. This storyline wouldn't have been a success without his acting skills. He is truly a great actor. Lee Sung Min (Jin Yang Cheol) who played the role of the CEO, I need to applaud him as playing a senior, he was awesome. Shin Hyun Bin (Seo Min Young) who played the role of the detective, was more mysterious than the whole drama. I mean she was very good. The character she played had me until the last episode. But so did Song Joong Ki! If you like mysteries, this is a great one to watch. No Martial arts, no fantasy, and a tad bit of romance, I didn't pay attention to the wardrobes or the visuals, I was too busy concentrating on the storyline. This will be a rewatch for me.

This was so good, but I hated that had to wait for episodes during that one break. There was a little slip-up but I didn't count that nor will I say what it was. I so love Xu Kai, he can't do any wrong... For Xu Kai to be so young as I said before, he definitely shows his maturity on screen. I just hope he doesn't lose his young self when off-screen. He is only 27 years of age. Have fun, Xu Kai, you only live once. Yang Mi, I really loved you in this present-day drama. I love Yang Mi in historical dramas! This had me laughing, and crying, so I showed my emotions and which is a good sign. I have to thank or applaud all the other actors/actresses for doing an awesome job. There is one outfit that I truly loved that Yang Mi wore and that is the black/white striped skirt and top. Yang Mi looks really great in that outfit. Thanking the rest of the Team for this drama.

I apologize... I said he was 24 but he is 27 years of age. I knew that... but I finished this drama after my nephew had passed. He is still young at 27. He is the age of my great-grandson'.

It took me a while to get into this drama. The first 10 episodes were really dull and I don't blame the actors/actresses, but I do blame the storyline. The story did pick up after episode 10. Cheng Xiao (Lu Qing Qing) is the type of actress that needs to grow on me because my first impression was okay but not someone I can truly praise right now. I would have to see more acting from her since this is just my 2nd time viewing her. She really does well in dancing and singing. I did love the main lead actor Jason Gu (Nangong Yi Xin) but this was my first time seeing him play a serious role. I loved all of the martial art and the fantasy was great. The costumes of the Empress were all beautiful, never seen that design before and I applaud whoever is the designer. Thank you to all the actors/actresses who did very well.

I was really hoping this drama had a great storyline... I enjoyed a lot of what I watched. The storyline was different. I don't know if these screenwriters want to twist it at the end. Honestly, I didn't like the ending at all. Did the main leads die, or commit suicide? I think you need to watch it and judge it for yourself. I don't know what that was I saw.


Yook Sung Jae (Lee Seung Chun), Lee Jong Won (Hwang Tae Yong), Jung Chae Yeon (Na Joo Hee), and Yeonwoo (Oh Yu Jin) did great in the scripts that were given to them. I wanted to learn more about Yook Sung Jae who is a KPop Maknae Artist from BtoB. I love his personality so I wanted to see how good of an actor he was. I will find other dramas he is in. He has very good vocal tones which I do know.

This is a cute story. Not very romantic but it was enough for how this story is written. I won't focus on the main leads because everyone did very well to make this storyline come alive. The set and visuals were great from the first episode to the last episode. It was short and sweet. I'm not a pet owner, I was but I think you have to be very passionate about owning a pet that will only live 14 years. I can't do that anymore, it hurts to lose them. I wasn't crazy about the wardrobes because the police uniform is only blue and looks like the main lead only had maybe 3 changes to make. That's that.

This is one of the cutest romantic dramas with a great storyline from Episodes 1 to 36. One of my favorite actors is in this drama and I wished he had more dramas out there. Chen Fei Yu (Li Xun) He was excellent in the role that was given to him. CFY made this character his own, he was very believable. Zhang Jing Yi (Zhu Yun) who played opposite Chen Fei You, did very well after episode 19. I felt at first she didn't have chemistry but that chemistry with CFY came out of nowhere. I love the CFY wardrobe and man does he look good in jeans and a black turtleneck long-sleeve shirt. I loved how the writers wrote in a band and how friends stayed friends all the way up to the end. Well just a few of them. A lot of corruption in this drama. I loved how the writers worked out the crisis and called them plans. Anyway, don't skip episodes.

This was a very cute story! This is also another storyline you can't be skipping episodes or you will miss what this story is about. I won't comment on each actor/actress in this storyline but know that all the main leads were awesome. The storyline was actually very peculiar but loved it. I wished they had more time on the last episode. The visuals and I do want to mention the costume design of the outfits that the first main lead actress was wearing. They were all cute. That black and white outfit she had was excellently made. The song they played over and over in this drama, almost put me to sleep, it's not a bad song but I will love hearing it while beginning my sleep at night. Please enjoy.

I didn't expect this, I guess we all cheer differently or the screenwriter didn't have a clue about being a cheerleader. I was one, and we surely didn't cheer like that. Honestly, I'm not putting this drama down... different cultures do different things. I'm not going to name the actors and actresses in this drama but I will give them their due respect. All did very well. I don't know why the writers had to have someone evil in their plot. I do have a favorite actor in this but he got cheated out of it all in the storyline. I knew he was going to catch the girl because was 3rd in line. The younger generation might enjoy this but that evil plot should have stayed out.

Another storyline with a confusing ending, it sounds like there will be a part 2 to this story. Yang Mi is one of my top Chinese actresses and of course, she did what she is known for and that is an excellent actress. (I still love her in Historical drama) This is the 3rd drama that I have viewed Bai Yu in a drama. I need to see more of him. I loved him in the "Guardian". This is one of many dramas with Doctors/Nurses/hospitals that handle various medical crises. I really won't look at these types of dramas but I did was because, again, Yang Mi was in this.

I love Li Qin and she did really well with the character she played. Her acting skills are unbelievable. Johnny Huang did very well playing the opposite of actress Li Qin. I wanted to give this a 10 rating but the ending was not good enough for me... not saying it was a bad ending but it didn't go anywhere. That frustrated me, but the storyline in the beginning episodes brought tears and laughter to my heart. I love how they input Martial Arts with Johnny who really knows martial arts. I won't blast it because it is not how I wanted it to end. But I will give the actors and actresses their due for making this storyline work or try. I learned one thing and that is Li Qin can speak fluent English. Nie Zi Hao can play evil with his innocent looks.

I am apologizing for getting actresses mixed up. I am watching 6 dramas at the same time. Two of them have Bai Lu in them during my rewatch time or I was thinking of the new drama coming up with Dylan Wang and Bai Lu.

I feel the same about Part 2 as I did about Part 1... These are the kind of dramas that I love so much. The intrigue, the martial arts, the fantasy, the animation, the music, the set, the costumes, and the skilled actors and actresses with great skills. It kept me focused on every single episode. Wow, I am truly impressed with the storyline. Zhang Yi Shang (Duan Mu Cui) is excellent, want to see more of her, she plays a strong female leading role and I loved it. Darren Chen (Zhan Hong) is the reason why I watched this. I was impressed with Darren Chen in "Meteor Garden" that I had to watch more of him. I am happy that I did. Wang Yi Fei (Hong Luan) gave me a new perspective on her acting skills. The new respect for romance in a drama has me reeled with a new founded respect that Love does exist even in dramas. The romantic chemistry between two skilled artists was definitely there. The romance between Duan Mu and Zhan was amazing and committed to each other no matter what. The ending was so cool... had me shaking my head in satisfaction. Yes, this is one to rewatch. I applaud the screenwriters and storytellers. You got this right.
